Cookies

What we store, and why.

Draft for MVP validation, last updated 2026-07-10. Not yet reviewed by legal counsel.

Our approach

Lensiq sets a small number of strictly necessary cookies and browser storage automatically, because certain features — staying signed in, resuming an audit you started before creating an account, and remembering your cookie choice — cannot work without them. These do not require your consent under applicable law. Analytics cookies are different: none are set on your first visit, a banner asks for your consent first, and if you reject or dismiss the banner without choosing, no analytics cookies are set and Google Analytics is never loaded.

Third-party cookies

Analytics cookies are set by Google Analytics 4, operated by Google. See Google's Privacy Policy for how Google processes this data.

Changing your choice

You can reset your analytics cookie choice at any time — this clears the stored preference and shows the consent banner again.
